Event Sanction:

This is an unsanctioned event. Our unsanctioned events are an excellent way for our members to get involved with a variety of strength sports in the comfort of their own gym. All of our events are a great opportunity to meet and compete with amazing people. We are not against sanctioned events. We actually do hold sanctioned events and encourage and help promote sanctioned events to our members. As an Open event, we do allow athletes from outside our gym to sign up for this event. We will post all our event results and maintain our own database of records. However, as an unsanctioned event your results won’t be published on Powerlifting Watch or used in ranking outside of Grinder Gym.

Rules:

Each lifter will be granted 3 attempts in a standard “Round Robin” flight arrangement. Opening attempts will be given at weigh-in and can be changed until 5 minutes before a lifter’s flight. Second and third attempts must be given to the scorer’s table within 60 seconds of completion of the previous lift. A lifter may not reduce their attempt weight and can increase their weight by 1kg increments only. ONLY third attempts may be changed, up until the bar has been loaded, and up to two changes can be made.
